Nickel 20 Cent coin with a left-facing portrait of Sun Yat-sen on the obverse, in sober, realistic style, framed by a continuous geometric border that gives the design a distinctive character. The reverse presents a more abstract composition, with the denomination in Chinese characters integrated into a central structure of straight lines, surrounded by decorative elements that reinforce the symmetry of the whole. The specimen shows solid preservation, with the original luster still visible, fields with light contact marks and well-defined relief, in accordance with its grade. Issued during a period of great instability in China, it reflects the symbolic continuity of the Republic in a time of conflict.
